Unable to ejaculate
Does anyone know if
Effexor
XL, Wellbutrin XL or Lamotragine cause this? I have been able to orgasm in a long, long time.

new here
I had been on
Effexor
but felt that it kept me up at night and possibly potentiated a vertigo type of issue I was having. I withdrew, horribly from it, bc I did not follow the directions of decreasing the dose. That was over a year ago.

My house is a mess !!
I have contacted my Dr. and asked to be put on
Effexor
...used it years ago with success. Am currently on Prozac, after having tried Cymbalta and Lexapro. Scared that i may have some kind of hoarding disorder.

Who takes what for anxiety and what has worked
I was recently prescribed
Effexor
which scares me even more. I really don’t want to be on meds but I am having a very tough day today and now think that I need something to take the edge off. Can anyone tell me what they have found to be helpful?

medication failure again...
My
Effexor
is making me physically feel ill with nausea, and muscle joint pain but it is helping my overall mental health so I guess that is just some side-effects I will have to deal with.

Hot flash help for the hubby
He's been getting quarterly Lupron injections since April 2017, and has tried various dosages of venlafaxine (
Effexor
) and Megace but they seem to be of no help. Before that, he tried Gabapentin but was absolutely miserable and "foggy" so quickly gave up on that.

Effexor start up side effects
I decided to stop the
Effexor
on my own to really see. For 3 days no
Effexor
, only Zoloft and my anxiety was bearable. Last night I decided to take the
Effexor
37.5mg, 25mg Zoloft and 1/4 of Xanax 0.5mg at bedtime. Within 30mins I started to feel flush, spaced out, head-full with a headache.

Looking for Positive Support.. Reply would be helpful.
I’m still currently taking 225 mg of
Effexor
daily, and .5 mg of Xanax up to three times a day as needed. I usually take it once or twice. I used to be able to go days and days without needing a Xanax, but I’ve been so anxious that I’ve been taking them.

Has anyone been on Effexor?
Hello everyone, I was proscribed
Effexor
by my doctor for my anxiety, but I am nervous about taking it. I had been prescribed sertraline, and reacted horrible to it. I guess I am just afraid of taking any drugs but I feel like I really need to give this a try as I cannot manage well right now.

Venlafaxine (Effexor) & Decapeptyl
Hello, I am wondering if anyone has any experience of having a Decapeptyl injection alongside taking Venlafaxine. I am petrified that the Decapeptyl is going to totally screw up my anxiety & depression, I have also been prescribed HRT to take alongside whilst I wait for a hysterectomy. I would really

Increased anxiety, panic and depression
Once again I messaged by Dr and recommended switching from zoloft to
effexor
37.5mg . She said to wean myself down from the 75mg over the next few days then start the
Effexor
. I took 25mg last night and was gonna start the
Effexor
tonight.

New to IBS and looking for suggestions to calm down my newly irritated gut
After a month or so of this plus my anxiety/depression coming back I went back on the
effexor
. Things have gotten somewhat better - stool no longer so loose - but the gel and gut pain remain. It's been almost 6 months now.

Your symptoms don’t matter.
I still take
Effexor
. But my main focus is that I don’t care about my symptoms. Long story short, try if you can to just accept all your symptoms. Don’t try and make them go away. Let them go away while you are still in the situation. It won’t happen overnight.

Hopeless...nothing will get better
Cymbalta, Bupropion, Fluoxetine, Pristiq,
Effexor
, Abilify, Lamictal, Paxil, etc. etc. etc. Nothing ever really helped. Most recently I was on Trintellix starting last July. Then I started getting strange visible bleeding in my urine!! Horrifying and scary.
